Wife Better Used Car Buyer National Expert Claims The female, not the male, of the household should be a familys used car buyer, or at least the shopper, a national magazine asserted. Women are more usel to shopping and more apt to like it, said American Home magazine. And shopping is what it takes to turn up a good buy in a used car. Too many men can be intimidated by a salesman who senses their ignorance and plays on it, with no automotive myths to live up to, are free to ask all the 'dump questions they want, and maybe turn up some important answers. Here are some hints on used Radiation Effects Told By Scientist The best way to teach radiation therapy techniques and develop new techniques is to use them on humans. However, the lethal doses required for this teaching and development prohibit the use of humans. Scientists at the University of Chicago have solved the problem by creating a synthetic human. In an underground laboratory in the University Argonne Cancer Research Hospital, the phantom human sits placidly waiting for his next exposure to radiation by a medical physicist. The phantom consists of a human head and torso. It is made of a replica skeleton covered with synthetic rubber flesh that absorbs radiation in the same manner and the amounts as human tissue. The phantom is one of several tools being used in the school. It is molded onto the skeleton and cut into inch thick slices like a loaf of bread. In the laboratory it is irradiated. Developed film may then be examined by the physicist to determine the dose and distribution of the radiation in the body. Squares? Four Score or More car buying given in the maga- zine. Include $150 to $250 in your budget for getting the car into top shape. This repair reserve might save you major headaches which can be acquired trying to avoid minor ones, said the magazine. Decide beforehand if you plan to keep the car for some time or resell it soon. A car that holds its price might not be a good buy since you, after all, are pay- ing the price it held. The best time to buy a used car is when new cars are selling well, generally in spring and in early summer. Most used cars are available then because they are being taken in as trades. Generally, four door sedans offer the best value as used cars because they depreciate faster than their fancies relatives and, to, the fancier cars have more gadgetry to go haywire. A good rule of thumb is this: The older the car you buy the simpler it should be for there will be less likelihood of something going wrong with it.
